You might be small
But you represent mightiness
There are seven of you in total
You struggle to survive in battle against
New technology
Fragile armor
Changing battlefields
Ages ago there was a full army
Protecting against the boredom

Now, there’s just you.
You might be small
But you represent mightiness
It has been a short time

Some of you were scavenged from being discarded
Some of you were newly procured from the market

Of late nights with my headphones
Of early morning by the radio

You might be small
But you represent mightiness
When I see the chip in your armor
When I see the broken shell of your home
When I see the small crack on your surface
I remember how you’ve been there for me during my worst moments
I remember how I worked to save you
I remember how you worked to save me
You might be small
But you represent mightiness
You represent
The power
The impact
The joy
The safety
That music brings
